[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3732543, member: 5412"] That may be up for discussion as to who may be responsible, and I'm interested in seeing the responses. This is the EPA's response for existing ranges. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/documents/epa_bmp.pdf[/URL] Going back about 25 years or so, our company contracted with another company to remove and properly dispose of our waste oil and fluids. They picked them up weekly and took them to OKC. A couple years later we were informed they were putting them into drums and buried which was totally illegal. Made the national news. We were not the only customers. Our company was informed by the EPA that we were responsible for our waste from birth to death. So, when the illegal dump was found, we had to pay millions along with other companies to clean up the area. The company that scammed us were fined into oblivion. Everybody was claimed by the EPA to be at fault some way somehow. Are areas containing encapsulated lead on a range different from oil and wastewater/oils? I don't know. Again, open for discussion. Edit: There are lead reclaimers that will come to a range to recover the lead. How they do that and the ramifications of EPA compliance I don't know, but there are people out there that do that. I shoot reclaimed shot shell lead for short range plinking on clays. [/QUOTE]
